“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

([John:] “Is he with this company?”)

A man in the background of your acquaintance, not connected with the company now, or if he is, he is far from your thoughts. As it would seem to be a professional man not at your firm. He appears to be offering you something for his own reasons, and for his own benefit rather than your own.

(The following is a resume of John Bradley’s comments regarding the impressions given above. There was an initial encounter with a man in the company, in the immediate past—two weeks ago. The man, according to John, was also strongly connected to John’s feelings about the company [or attitudes toward it] for he felt that the new man, a regional director, has some of the same attitudes he has.

(He made no connections with Detroit.

(Jane’s handwritten note: “May 1968—John, in rereading a copy of this session, saw at once that the boy referred to as M J is M.J. Shuman—a child whose influence on his son he distrusts. The boy is called M.J., I think John said [This note correlates with the handwritten ‘See Notes’ earlier.”]

(Seth mentions an April meeting and John said that he expects to go to Chicago for a meeting this spring.

We will try to separate the father from the son here. The man to which I refer is not terribly advanced in age, but he is at least 50. I do not believe he is over 80. At times he has a nervous twitch. He drinks coffee without milk and wears black shoes. This would seem to be the father. But if so, he has more drive than the son. The characteristics given however do apply to the man who is ill, whether it is the father or son.

He will, as always, do well. An involvement with three men in particular, a room he will think inadequate. Arrangements having to do with the amount of air, either poor ventilation or failure of an air conditioner. A scrambled afternoon: two appointments not kept, one later kept, a caucus… caucus?

(Note: John’s experience at Rochester meeting recently—he saw his district supervisor’s face turn younger before his eyes as the man spoke at the meeting—about fifteen years’ difference, John said. John wasn’t alarmed because of the Seth material. The effects lasted at least a minute and probably longer. John didn’t know if anyone else saw it as he mentioned what he saw to no one, including the man involved.
